Those people could have originally not made things difficult for Chen Ang, but this attitude of Chen Ang completely enraged them, and even several other people surrounded Chen Ang.

"How about it? Kid, you are quite arrogant. I don't know if your ability can support you being this arrogant."

As they spoke, the demonic energy in their bodies was released immediately.

Chen Ang never liked being threatened, but he did not have demonic energy to release externally either.

In order not to alert the enemy, all he could use were various hidden weapons and show his pure physical strength.

Fortunately, his physical strength was also very powerful and could completely deal with these minions.

Seeing that Chen Ang had no reaction, several demonic cultivators also felt strange. While feeling terrified in their hearts, one person finally could not help but make the first move.

However, before he even touched Chen Ang's clothes, he had already been hit in the chest by the other party's punch.

A hole was actually punched directly into his chest.

"Overestimating your own strength."

Chen Ang threw out these few words expressionlessly.

The other demonic cultivators around had long been scared and did not dare to make any other moves, all looking at Chen Ang in terror, and were even more curious about his identity.

It stands to reason that only a true member of the Demon Clan could have such combat power, but how would a true member of the Demon Clan come to their small stall to look for things?

Could it be that he was an illegitimate child or an unfavored member of the Demon Clan?

Everyone around had chaotic thoughts in their hearts and also wanted to figure out Chen Ang's true identity.

And this was naturally Chen Ang's goal.

Seeing that those people did not intend to continue following or causing trouble, Chen Ang turned around and left directly.

And he did not leave this place, but turned around and came to the inn behind him.

Only then did he ask the man sitting at the front desk: "Are there any rooms left?"

That person naturally saw the situation outside and also knew that this person was definitely a big client.

And since his shop was the only place here where one could stay, the rooms were naturally prepared very sufficiently.

They were also divided into low-level rooms and high-level rooms, and the prices were naturally different.

And this high-level room was not just high in price; one also had to have enough strength to be qualified to stay.

By comparison, money was not that important.

"Staying here requires exchange with demonic artifacts, or enough demonic energy is also fine."

That man was still quite polite when speaking to Chen Ang, but the things Chen Ang could take out were really limited. The things with demonic energy were the demonic cores he had obtained before.

Therefore, he directly took out a demonic core of decent quality. Seeing this thing, the man took out a room plate without a second word.

"This thing is enough to deduct for a month's food and lodging. If you have any matters, just tell our staff here, and we will try our best to help you solve them."

Chen Ang naturally would not believe these polite words, nor did he feel that he would stay in this place for a month.

Staying in this place was equivalent to being monitored; Chen Ang naturally would not be so stupid.

However, he needed a place to stay no matter what, so that he would not be particularly noticed.

Returning to the room expressionlessly, Chen Ang did not pay attention to the others.

And what he did not know was that because of the things just now, he had already become the core of discussion for everyone around, and had even been noticed by the people of the Demon Clan.

Several small leaders of the low-level Demon Clan were observing Chen Ang's movements in the next room, and they were also particularly curious about Chen Ang's identity.

"What is the background of this person? Could it be the person the higher-ups have been looking for all along?"

"If it really were that person, we guys would probably have been wiped out by this person long ago. But this person probably shouldn't be underestimated either; we must keep a close eye on him."

Both sides quickly discussed a countermeasure.

Regarding this matter, although Chen Ang was unaware, he had a sense of it, only feeling that something seemed to be observing him in the dark.

Regarding this situation, he quickly made a decision.

"It seems that I cannot stay in this place today. It's just right to investigate the situation around here at night."

As he spoke, he took out a puppet-like thing, which was covered with runes. After he dripped the blood from his hand onto the puppet, a man who looked exactly like him appeared in front of him.

"Tonight, you will stay in the room for me. If someone comes over, you say you are resting. After the light is extinguished, you don't speak anymore, just pass the images you see to me."

He had also obtained this puppet by chance last time. At that time, he felt that this thing might not be very practical; he did not expect that it would be used so soon.

It was a pity that this thing could not be used repeatedly; it could only be used for one month at a time. Fortunately, this time was enough. As long as he found the clues, he would leave immediately, and he estimated he would only stay for a few days.

Having made preparations, Chen Ang sat in the room waiting for darkness. When night fell and everything was quiet, he left directly from the window and came to the foot of the nearby mountain.

Perhaps influenced by the Demon Clan that had been here before, the mountain ranges nearby were also full of plants with demonic nature, such as demonic vines and man-eating trees, which could be considered full of danger.

After a search, Chen Ang finally found a location with relatively few demonic creatures, set up a barrier around it, and set up a simple tent before sitting inside to rest.

Looking at the layers of demonic energy around, Chen Ang could not help but think of his former companions, and his heart was even more melancholy. It was a pity that he did not have a pot of hot wine on him; what he had was the delicious food Qing Mei had prepared for him.

"Fortunately, I have this thing, otherwise how would I get through this long night." He said, taking out the delicious food Qing Mei had prepared and tasting it carefully in small bites.

The familiar taste made the entire night no longer so cold.

"This thing is not bad, but I still have to cherish it. Who knows how much longer I have to stay outside." Chen Ang could not help but sigh.

When his state was full, he got up to check the surroundings.

Sure enough, he found many clues.

For example, some teleportation arrays that looked strange, and some thick demonic energy that had not yet dissipated.

Obviously, those people of the Demon Clan who were here before had obviously done something, but he did not know if this matter was related to that organization.

If there was a relationship, what were they plotting? What was their next plan?

Chen Ang thought about this matter, but relying only on the current clues, he really could not get any useful answers.

"It seems there are indeed many clues here, but the clues that can be found at night are ultimately limited. I'd better go back and rest for a while, so that I can investigate the specific situation clearly tomorrow."

Chen Ang had no intention of investigating further; at least during this time period, he was not prepared to continue investigating.

After all, he was in an unfamiliar place. If someone deliberately schemed at this time, even he had a great possibility of falling into a trap.

Considering this, Chen Ang quickly returned to the tent.

With the tent and the barrier, Chen Ang's night passed quite peacefully.

Until the next morning, he had not seen the sunlight, and only then did he know the reason for the heavy demonic energy in this place.

"So it was using such a method. No wonder. It seems I still have to break this formation first and disperse the demonic energy in this place."

Now he was still at the foot of the mountain. He thought that when he reached the top of the mountain, he should be able to see this formation. By then, as long as he destroyed the formation that gathered the demonic energy, he should be able to disperse the demonic energy here.

By then, this stronghold would naturally be broken without attack, and he could be considered to have done a good deed for the surrounding people.

Thinking this, Chen Ang hurried to take action and headed straight for the top of this Demon Mountain.

However, what he did not expect was that the higher he went, the more rampant the demonized plants became, and there were even demonized creatures with intelligence that had directly transformed into puppets of the Demon Clan.

Although these guys were not difficult to deal with, the large quantity made him a bit overwhelmed.

"If I turn back now, I'm afraid everything I've done so far will be in vain. If I want to break into this territory again next time, I will have to waste the same amount of time."

Thinking this, Chen Ang finally decided to persist.

Fortunately, in this place now, the distance to the top of the mountain was not far.

When he finally reached the top of the mountain, those demonized creatures seemed not to dare to approach.

It was estimated that there was something more powerful in this place.

Worried about being suddenly attacked, Chen Ang stayed in the peripheral area and did not start taking action immediately.

And at this moment, other movements also appeared on the side of the clone.

He closed his eyes and only saw a long knife stabbing directly into the clone's chest, and even brutally cutting off the clone's head directly.

Anger burst out in Chen Ang's eyes; he had not expected that these people would actually dare to do such a thing.

Now his identity could be considered exposed, and those people should continue to track his whereabouts. He should not be able to return to that place anymore.

Fortunately, this wilderness was not cold. Although there were many snakes, insects, rats, and ants, they could not have any influence on him; after all, it was impossible for his skin to be bitten through by these guys alone.

Adjusting his state and breathing, Chen Ang observed the situation regarding the formation.

Soon he discovered the center where this demonic energy was absorbed.

"There seems to be a cave over there. I don't know what kind of things are guarding inside. It's better not to enter rashly; it's best to destroy the formation that maintains the surroundings first."

He had also read many books about formations before, and now it could be considered to have come in handy.

And from the current situation, these formations should have been hidden.

If he wanted to make them appear, he probably had to use some other methods.
